How Do I Love You?

Just thought I would take a moment to recognize Valentine's Day and all it's glory.



" How do I love you? Let me count the ways.

I love you on your very best...

and very worst of days.

I love to see you laughing and dancing in the rain.

And even when you lose your shoes, I love you just the same.

I love to hear you singing.

I love to see you smile.

I love the way you take each day in your own unhurried style.

I'm happy when you're happy,

and I'm sorry when you're sad.

And even though it may not show, I love you when you're bad.

I love the way you act so brave when you fall and hurt your knee.

I love to watch you sleeping, tucked away in dreams.

I love to hear you whisper all your giant plans and schemes.

I love the way you wear your pants with the front part in the back

and the way you walk around sometimes with your head in a sack.

I love to see you deep in a thought.

I love to watch you play.

And though I'm sure you'll never know, I love you more each day.

For if I had a million days and time enough for all the praise, I couldn't tell you all the ways...I love you!"


I had to quote this book because I thought it appropriate on a day like today. This children's book even impacts me today. This message somehow still makes me feel so loved by my mom and dad, and I hope it has the same affect on children. NO matter what, this is what matters; love that is. Because without it, this world would not exist.


Please enjoy Valentine's Day everyone. Give some love.
